Everton will take on Burnley, while Liverpool will face West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League this weekend.
Merseyside rivals Liverpool and Everton both are in Premier League action this weekend.
While the Toffees will take on Burnley at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon, the Reds will face West Bromwich Albion away from home at The Hawthorns on Sunday afternoon.
Former Liverpool and Manchester United striker Michael Owen has predicted the outcome of the two matches.
Owen has backed Everton to pick up all three points from their encounter against Burnley and has predicted Liverpool to draw with West Brom.
“Burnley will do the double over Everton for the first time since the 1959/60 season (when they won the league title) if they beat Ronald Koeman’s side at Goodison,” Owen wrote on Betvictor.com.
“The Clarets have only taken four points away from Turf Moor so far this season, however, and it is hard to see them getting anything on Merseyside.
“Romelu Lukaku has scored more Premier League goals (13) than Burnley (11) in 2017 and has found the back of the net in all eight home games the Blues have played so far this year.
“Burnley may breach the Everton defence on Saturday but they may not be able to stop this free-scoring Blues side from taking all three points.”
A footnote added: “Michael’s recommendation; Everton to win and both teams to score at 23/10.”
“The Baggies have failed to score in five of their last six PL games but you have to go back to October 2011 for the last time Liverpool won at the Hawthorns and I feel the hosts’ aerial power could prove a thorn in the Reds’ side,” Owen wrote on Betvictor.com.
“Liverpool showed their class and flair at Stoke last weekend but may have to settle for a point in a game where I expect to see chances and goals at both ends.”
A footnote added: “Michael’s recommendation; Game to finish in a draw and both teams to score at 4/1.”
Everton are seventh in the Premier League table at the moment with 54 points from 32 matches and still have a chance of breaking into the top six.
The Toffees will head into the match against Burnley on the back of a 4-2 victory over Leicester City at Goodison Park in the league.
Ronald Koeman’s side should be able to pick up all three points from the match against Burnley as they are at home and have the better team.
Meanwhile, Liverpool currently find themselves third in the league table with 63 points from 32 matches.
Jurgen Klopp’s side should feel confident of winning against West Brom, who look set to finish in the top 10 of the Premier League this season.
